"Windows XP Errors"

I have had a few errors come up over the last week i am wondering if you could help me figure out what the problems are:
I first started getting:
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

I have also had:
PFN_LIST_CORRUPT
STOP: 0x0000004E (0x00000007,0x00006B8D,0x00006B8C,0x00000000)

And just:
{Bad Image Checksum}
Stop:C0000221
And something about this file - Advapi32.dll

I think these are RAM errors, but i just wanted your opinions as this has started getting really annoying. Also my computer randomly starts shutting down?

Thankyou
James

I have had stop errors twice in recent times. Both times it turned out to be dodgy drivers on USB devices. After downloading the latest drivers they stopped and all was right again in the world.

Download and run this software overnight:

Run it for 8 hours or more, anything more than 0 errors means faulty memory. If you have two sticks of RAM and you get errors, try it with one or the other because you probably won't have to junk both.
